论文摘要
以用户为中心和低延迟通信不仅可以由小单元，而且可以通过无处不在的连接来启用。最近，提出了垂直的异质网络（V-HETNET）架构来进行大量小细胞。像乐团一样，V-Hetnet是不同的通信合奏的多态，包括地静止轨道（GEO）和低地球轨道（LEO）卫星（例如Cubesats）以及网络飞行平台（NFPS）以及地面通信链接。在这项研究中，我们提出了Terahertz（THZ）通信，以使V-螺旋的要素能够和谐起作用。由于THZ链接提供了较大的带宽，导致了超高的数据速率，因此它适用于回程和领先的小细胞。此外，THZ通信可以支持从卫星间链接到体内纳米网络的众多应用。但是，为了品尝这种和谐，我们需要准确的渠道模型。在本文中，突出了通过我们的测量活动获得的见解，以揭示v-hetnets中THZ通信的真正潜力。
User-centric and low latency communications can be enabled not only by small cells but also through ubiquitous connectivity. Recently, the vertical heterogeneous network (V-HetNet) architecture is proposed to backhaul/fronthaul a large number of small cells. Like an orchestra, the V-HetNet is a polyphony of different communication ensembles, including geostationary orbit (GEO), and low-earth orbit (LEO) satellites (e.g., CubeSats), and networked flying platforms (NFPs) along with terrestrial communication links. In this study, we propose the Terahertz (THz) communications to enable the elements of V-HetNets to function in harmony. As THz links offer a large bandwidth, leading to ultra-high data rates, it is suitable for backhauling and fronthauling small cells. Furthermore, THz communications can support numerous applications from inter-satellite links to in-vivo nanonetworks. However, to savor this harmony, we need accurate channel models. In this paper, the insights obtained through our measurement campaigns are highlighted, to reveal the true potential of THz communications in V-HetNets.
